KUWAIT, CITY, Aug 10: The Court of Cassation upheld a lower court ruling that refrained from punishing two Kuwaiti women convicted of assaulting and insulting security personnel on board a Kuwait Airways flight. The incident prompted the pilot to return to Bangkok Airport to ensure passenger and crew safety. Case details revealed that a verbal altercation between the two women and the flight crew escalated into physical and verbal abuse against the onboard security team. Although the court found their actions a disturbance of order and safety aboard the aircraft, it considered the surrounding circumstances sufficient to issue a conviction without enforcing a custodial sentence. The court also upheld the acquittal of a third woman who was implicated in the same case.

Kuwait Busts Nigerian Cybercrime Gang Targeting Banks and Telecoms
KUWAIT CITY, Aug 10: The Kuwaiti Ministry of Interior announced on Sunday the arrest of an international cybercrime gang from Nigeria involved in attacks on telecom towers and banks across Kuwait. According to a statement from the General Directorate of Security Relations and Media, the case began after a report from the Communication and Information Technology Regulatory Authority (CITRA) about cyberattacks.

The Ministry emphasized that these efforts reflect its ongoing commitment to strengthening cybersecurity and combating electronic fraud targeting residents and citizens. (KUNA)
